Please join the Arroyo Arts Collective for a series of free and family friendly paper bag puppet workshops. This year’s theme features beautiful Monarch butterflies, whose brilliant migrations are wonders to behold, and the bees that swarm to find new homes and to pollinate our food and flowers.
April 30, 3-4:30pm, Cypress Park Library
May 15, 3-5pm, Eagle Rock Library
May 18, 3-5pm, Arroyo Seco Regional Library
May 19, 12-4pm, Southwest Museum
Then on Sunday, June 2, we hope you will bring your puppet(s) and join us for the 4th annual Lummis Day Puppet Parade. Starting at 11am, we’ll walk from the Southwest Museum to Sycamore Grove to mark the beginning of Lummis Day. We welcome insect costumes, hats and masks, so brush up your antennae and shine your exoskeleton.
Bees and Butterflies: Beyond Borders is made possible in part through the generous support of the Department of Cultural Affairs, City of Los Angeles, the Autry Museum of the American West, the Lummis Day Community Foundation, and the Los Angeles County Arts Commission.
